Node.js Package Manager

NPM Installation

The Node.js Package Manager tool (npm) is installed along with Node.js. After installing Node.js, perform the following tasks to ensure that a compatible version of npm is installed on the server.

Post Installation

Verify that npm is installed and available from the PATH environment variable. The path will depend on your environment. The path below is provided as an example.

$ command -v npm
/bin/npm

Check which version of npm is installed. Consult the IAP Release Notes for the current supported version.

$ npm -v
<xx.x.x>

If the version of npm installed is not compliant with the release notes, then upgrade npm with the appropriate command for the release version.
